Why put this up? Why ruin the realeases for others?

You know, the conscience is an amazing thing. The second greatest gift the Jehovah gave humans is free will. You have the freedom to obey, or to NOT obey. You people say, if the official site didn't put them up, there would be no way to access them. And you're right. Except that, there is a disclaimer that requires free will, honesty. You're asked if you have attended a convention, and you're given two choice: Yes; No. Your answer gives a pretty good indication of what kind of person you are. If you say no, you cannot access the releases. If you say yes, but you are lying, you can access the releases. But for what? You've already shown your character. You are a liar. Is that what anybody really wants to be? Really?
You know, there is another example of the character examination where honesty, and integrity; loyalty, and faithfulness, was on display. At the beginning of human history, Satan challenged Jehovah's right to make decisions for the things that HE created. He was called a liar by one of those creations. Then he was abandoned by two more. Yes, Adam and Eve, and Satan, all once served Jehovah. But when He asked them to be obedient under the simplest tests of faith, they all failed. They all selfishly used their free will to satisfy their own selfish longing. When the Branch designed the disclaimer, they knew that some would be dishonest, but their integrity would not allow them to deny all of us the opportunity to demonstrate that we are of the highest character and integrity. The "high road", versus the "low road". Those of you who defend the lying, and cheating, and in effect, the stealing of things to which, you are not entitled, demonstrate who you are. Have a great life!
